Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.

| Function | Forms paracellular channels: polymerizes in tight junction strands with cation- and water-selective channels through the strands, conveying epithelial permeability in a process known as paracellular tight junction permeability (PubMed:20460438, PubMed:36008380). In intestinal epithelium, allows for sodium and water fluxes from the peritoneal side to the lumen of the intestine to regulate nutrient absorption and clear enteric pathogens as part of mucosal immune response (By similarity). In kidney, allows passive sodium and calcium reabsorption across proximal tubules from the lumen back to the bloodstream (By similarity). In the hepatobiliary tract, allows paracellular water and cation fluxes in the hepatic perivenous areas and biliary epithelium to generate bile flow and maintain osmotic gradients (By similarity). |
| Cellular Location | Cell junction, tight junction. Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O88552}; Multi-pass membrane protein |

Background
Claudin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLDN2 gene. By genomic sequence analysis, this gene is mapped to chromosome Xq22.3-q23. This gene product belongs to the claudin protein family whose members have been identified as major integral membrane proteins localized exclusively at tight junctions. Claudins are expressed in an organ-specific manner and regulate tissue-specific physiologic properties of tight junctions. By expression in a human intestinal epithelial cell line, it was determined that the intestine-specific homeodomain proteins CDX1 and CDX2 activated a reporter plasmid driven by the CLDN2 promoter.
